Notes From Your Presiden Don Miller. . .

May 2006 President's Letter Greetings:

As I write this I am getting over pneumonia so I am taking it easy for a while. We are so lucky to have such a great place for our meetings. Everyone can help keep CHOC happy with us if we are sure to clean up and put the chairs and tables back the way they were when we got there. Sheila Plotkin has again offered to have the progressive brunch appetizers at her house. All we need now is a place for the main course and dessert. All members of our Orange County Club are encouraged to also become members of MAFCA, which is the national organization that our club is a member. Included in your membership is a subscription to “The Restorer” magazine. All officers of the club must belong. I hope to very soon have a formal Mentorship Program started where all new members will have a club member to call on for help or advice. In the meantime, new members can call me and I will be sure that they get the help they need. LET'S KEEP DRIVING THOSE MODEL A’s!!!

Sunshine & Sorrow

By Jeanne Parrish Don Miller is on the road to recovery from a bad bout of flu in Paso Robles, returning home, leaving for Laughlin the next weekend feeling pretty good, only to return home, with bad sore throat & eventually being diagnosed with pneumonia. We wish you well, Prez. Dale McCall is undergoing some tests as you receive this, and we hope all will be well with the outcome. You are "Ford Tough, Dale!! Gwen & John Riggs continue to attend our meetings & tours. However they had to miss April's meeting due to a small accident with their modern. It seems an Irish tourist, driving an Enterprise rental car, (of course, without insurance) "cut them off at the pass"! Luckily no one was hurt, but the car. We wish Jo Nichols speedy recovery from a very painful back. Hoping to see you both real soon. Vince Mariola, the "Godfather" was seen at our breakfast. Joan was unable to make it and we sure miss you both on all our tours and at the meetings. Hoping you will be able to join us again, soon. Late Flash!!!! Tom Endy is a new Grand Father again. Benjamin Norman Stone arrived April 23rd (two weeks early) weighing in at 8 lbs 13 oz. All are doing well This Month’s Cover Photo by Tom Endy----This photo appeared on a previous “Distributor.” Does anyone know the date but even more importantly does anyone know whose car this is that needed a tow and does anyone know the name of the dog doing the heavy lifting?????

Technical 2006

by Tom Endy May Seminar: The May seminar will be held at Tom Endy’s house on Saturday May 6, at 0900. The subject will be valve adjustment. We will adjust the valves on as many cars as time will allow. Decide what valve setting you want and bring along a valve cover gasket just in case. June Seminar: The June seminar will be held at Mark Showing’s shop on Saturday, June 10, at 0900. We will attempt to get Mark’s roadster running and on the road. The location is The North Point Business Center at 22605 (Suite 516) E. La Palma Ave, Yorba Linda. Technical Tip: During the Model A era it was common for the ignition condenser to fail. As a result folklore has come down to the modern era that Model A Ford condensers are prone to failure. This is not necessarily true anymore. There are good quality condensers on the market that will perform indefinitely. Unfortunately there are also some poor quality condensers on the market. Condensers that have the ground tab soldered onto the base of the condenser are poor quality. The condenser is located in a very hot environment just above the exhaust manifold; the solder can easily melt and lose the ground connection. The good quality condensers have the ground tab spot-welded on. These are easily discernable by the three dots, or stake marks, where the tab attaches to the base of the condenser. ☺

A quality condenser with stake welds

A Quality Clutch Disk!

by Tom Endy A vanished breed: Take a close look at the photo below of a good quality Model A Ford clutch disk. Notice that the sides of each of the six springs are retained by perforations in the metal plate riveted to the center of the disk. On the backside there is a similar plate with similar perforations. The springs are held very securely and it is difficult for them to become dislodged. This disk was apparently on the market 15 or 20 years ago. The original Model A single disk clutch did not have springs. Springs are a product of later clutch development.

Manufactured by Nova Clutch Inc. The current market: The disks being sold today by every Model A parts supplier I have contacted are very different. There is no perforated plate holding the springs in place. The springs merely sit in a rectangular window held in place by there own compression at each end of the spring. The springs are not held in place adequately and it is very easy for one or more to become dislodged. Clutch failure: A number of people have experienced a clutch disk failure when one of the springs dislodged and jammed between the pressure plate and the disk. A new clutch: When it comes time to replace that clutch. It would be prudent to try to locate one of these good quality clutch disks. ☺

OCMAFC Military Veterans Tom Endy USN 1953-1957

My military experience began when I was 15 years old. I joined the California National Guard and was assigned to L Company, 223rd Infantry Regiment, 40th Division, located at the old Alhambra airport. When the war in Korea started in June 1950 the 40th was activated into the U.S. Army; those of us under age were honorably discharged for “minority concealed”, which was a kind way of saying we had lied about our age and they found out. I had joined with two of my school friends and for most of the six months we served we were not old enough to drive a car. A parent or older classmate would have to drive us to the Wednesday night meetings.

In July 1953, a few weeks after I graduated from Mark Keppel High School in Alhambra, I enlisted in the navy for 4 years. I was 18. My goal was to be a photographer’s mate and serve on a cruiser, but it didn’t happen. The Korean War ended while I was in boot camp. I went through 11 weeks of boot camp at San Diego, 9 weeks of airman school at Norman, Oklahoma, and 28 weeks of avionics school at Memphis, Tennessee. My first fleet assignment was to Patrol Squadron Forty (VP-40) at North Island, San Diego. I arrived there in December 1954 and was assigned to crew 8 as a radio operator on a P5M Martin flying boat. In February 1955 the squadron was deployed to the Philippines. Our missions were to patrol the China coast from the Philippines to the Formosa Straight. When the squadron returned to San Diego in November 1955, I was sent to an 18-week radio operator’s school at Keesler Air Force Base, Biloxi, Mississippi. Upon completing the school I was transferred to Early Warning Squadron One (VW-1) at Barbers Point, Hawaii. I was assigned to crew 2 as a radio operator on a WV-2 Lockheed Super Constellation. For most of 1956 we were deployed to Japan and the Philippines. Our missions were to fly as tactical reconnaissance for carrier task forces operating in the Far East. In January 1957 we returned to Barbers Point where I flew training and ferrying missions between Hawaii and the US Mainland, and Hawaii and Guam. I was honorably discharged from the navy in July 1957. I was rated an AT3. It had been a great adventure and I am appreciative of the technical training and direction the navy provided me.

HISTORIANS CORNER By Dick Smith This month I’d like to share some tips from an article from July-Aug ’82 Restorer, Tinkering With Our Toys by Arnold “Bud” Dodge, which as you know can be checked out FREE by calling me 949-770-6847. WATER PUMP New or rebuilt water pumps take a while to settle down and stop leaking. The leverage afforded by a large screwdriver on the gland nut can break off tightening lugs especially if you run out of threads. Back off and add a packing ring or two. Tighten slowly over several hours of operation. This can be done very effectively while motor is idling if due respect is given fan blade and tightening is not overdone. Leaking will stop. WATER OUTLET Save your nerves and the flanges on the upper water outlet. File head (usually not needed) and outlet mating surfaces square. Use a thin layer of non-setting Permatex. No gasket. You can now tighten all head bolts without wincing. Replacement outlet gaskets often squeeze out on the ends and can eventually cause a break in the outlet casting as the head is drawn up. OVERHEATING Many Model A’s have been accused of overheating just because a leaky radiator cap gasket permitted windshield spotting from expanding coolant from a normal operating engine. Air bubbles showing at the radiator filler neck may not be a leaky head gasket, but air pulled in through the water pump grease fitting or past pump packing. Always use capped type grease fitting at pump base fitted with a gasket under screw cap. Properly packed and maintained pumps should not leak air. COOLING SYSTEM A leaky gasket on the water inlet on the side of the engine is just in the right place to trickle coolant on the dipstick and into the crankcase. This can cause an unfounded worry. No use trying to fill your radiator to the top as it will just bubble out the overflow tube to seek an operating level. Don’t be over confidant, though; add a bit of coolant

now and then to assure a safe level. A rubber tube extension on your overflow tube outlet will help keep watermarks off the firewall. The slight fluid oozing of a head gasket is not uncommon even on trued blocks and heads. Replacement copper head gaskets have a minimum of crimping and can allow capillary action to pull fluid out the sides. One-quarter to a half a can of radiator sealant usually will stop this unsightly condition if the problem persists. Do not exceed normal head bolt torque (50-55 foot pounds). It may make the condition worse. To-Be-Continued. See you at the May meeting, hope you drive you’re A’s…. Dick Southern California Regional Meeting The Southern California Regional Meeting will be held at Bev Marsh's clubhouse at 6565 Grand Manan, Cypress. It will be held at 10:00 A.M. on Sun.

MOVING THE FOUR POST HOIST Photos by Don Ratzlaff

Richard Parrish recently purchased a hoist (from Bill Shaner) and our cameraman was on hand to witness the preparations. We have not heard that the hoist did not make it, so we are assuming that all went well!!!
